 # Freenet
 
-The Internet has grown increasingly centralized over the past 25 years, such that a handful of companies now effectively control the Internet infrastructure. The public square is privately owned, threatening freedom of speech and democracy.

-Freenet is a software platform that makes it easy to create decentralized alternatives to today's centralized tech companies. These decentralized apps will be easy to use, scalable, and secured through cryptography.

-To learn more about Freenet as a developer read [The User Manual](https://docs.freenet.org/). For an introduction to Freenet watch **Ian's talk and Q&A** - [YouTube](https://youtu.be/d31jmv5Tx5k) / [Vimeo](https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/740461100).

 ## Status
 
-Freenet is currently under development. Using our [development guide](https://docs.freenet.org/tutorial.html), developers can experiment with building decentralized applications using our SDK and testing them locally.

 ## Applications
 
 Examples of what can be built on Freenet include:
 
-* Decentralized email (with a gateway to legacy email via the @freenet.org domain)
+* Decentralized email (with a gateway to legacy email via the @freenet.org
+  domain)
 * Decentralized microblogging (think Twitter or Facebook)
 * Instant Messaging (Whatsapp, Signal)
 * Online Store (Amazon)
 * Discussion (Reddit, HN)
 * Video discovery (Youtube, TikTok)
 * Search (Google, Bing)
 
-All will be completely decentralized, scalable, and cryptographically secure. We want Freenet to be useful out-of-the-box, so we plan to provide reference implementations for some or all of these.

 ## How does it work?
 
-Freenet is a decentralized key-value database. It uses the same [small world](https://freenetproject.org/assets/papers/lic.pdf) routing algorithm as the original Freenet design, but each key is a cryptographic contract implemented in [Web Assembly](https://webassembly.org/), and the value associated with each contract is called its *state*. The role of the cryptographic contract is to specify what state is allowed for this contract, and how the state is modified.

-A very simple contract might require that the state is a list of messages, each signed with a specific cryptographic keypair. The state can be updated to add new messages if appropriately signed. Something like this could serve as the basis for a blog or Twitter feed.

 ## What is Locutus?
 
-Locutus was the working title used for this successor to the original Freenet, in March 2023 it was renamed to "Freenet" or "Freenet 2023", this repository was renamed from `locutus` to `freenet-core` in September 2023.
